Akai MPC 2000XL with 32MB RAM, External Zip Drive

“AKAI MPC 2000XL MIDI PRODUCTION CENTER Sampler Sequencer Drum Pad – please read. Condition is Used.

I bought this machine used and it is a beast. Has that classic feel and sound, definitely a piece of history… I haven’t had a chance to use it as much as it deserves. Dont do much recording anymore either so I need to part with it.

Just cleaned it up, had LCD screen professionally replaced a couple months back.

This machine has the 32mb memory expansion

THE “B” PAD BANK DOES NOT ENGAGE AND THE LIGHT FOR THE B PAD BANK DOES NOT COME ON MOST TIMES.. sometimes it will come on of you press it enough times.. I’m guessing it is an electrical contact issue that may or may not be an easy fix. However it does not affect the functioning of other pad banks.

The zip drive hooks up to the SCSI port and is used for saving projects, sequences or samples. I am including this drive and all cables necessary as well as a disc with around 70 or 80 weird lowfi drum samples and breaks that I recorded from vinyl records, these can be used or erased and the disc reformatted and reused for your own purposes… new zip discs can usually be found online secondhand.

I’m unsure as to weather the floppy drive works as I have never used it” Click here to search for MPCs on eBay
